APRICOT CAMPS BUSY Many of the apricot camps in the county are getting their season work well under way and by the end of this week most of them will be in full swing of the harvest. Many of the camps began pitting last week, but as yet the fruit has not been maturing fast enough to call for full crews. Present indications are that the camps are not going to suffer for help as they did last year. The crop is only a little over half as big as it was last year, and the fruit is so much better that pitters can handle what comes in faster than they did last year. The fruit is larger than last year, and at forty cents per 100 pounds, which seems to be the prevailing pay to pitters this year, it is believed that pitters will make good wages. NO STRIKE IN OIL FIELDS There will be no strike of oil field workers in the Orange county field, and recent rumors of a strike are without foundation, according to C. C.

If it does not give to make you happy; if it does you comfort beyond price; if it live you a wearing service that alone justifies its cost, return it. There is not a corsetiere in our corset department but will take a personal pride in your satisfaction. FALKENSTEIN'S who feel it put them in an unfavorable light before the public. "We are now arranging for a conference with representatives of the operators on July 20, looking to the establishment of a new wage scale," said Kinsler, "but there has never been anything said or done to indicate the possibility of a strike. It appears to us that the reports which have been circulated were originated merely with the idea of bringing the Union Oil workers into an unfavorable light. "The report of the oil workers union proves that it stands against a strike except as a last resort. We hope that the coming conference will result in securing an advanced wage scale, but there has never been any action which would justify the statement that a strike is probable, even should we fail entirely in our efforts, which is not anticipated. "The proposition of calling a strike has never been mentioned."

AIRPLANE FIRE PATROL After a month of the aerial patrol of the three Southern California national forests, officials, both of the army and forest service, pronounce the service an unqualified success.

The plane that flies toward the north lands at Santa Barbara and the other lands at Rockwell field, San Diego. Both return over the forests in the afternoon, viewing the wooded domain twice daily. Even on days when the mountain tops are obscured by fog the planes make their trips for rarely does the fog extend above the 4,000-foot level. Since the airplane patrol was inaugurated a month ago, a score of fires have been discovered and reported by wireless to the rangers on the ground. In every case, because of the warning, the forest rangers have been able to reach the fire and extinguish it before it had reached a dangerous size. So successful has been the service that the government is rushing planes to the northern forests to start similar patrols over the valuable timber lands on northern reserves.
